With the job handling procedures, you can start, block, cancel, queue, and release jobs.

Procedure result and prerequisites

You can only use the job handling procedure when the job data procedure is completed.

Steps in the job management procedures

Depending on the job’s status, these methods are available to start a job:

If the job status is In Queue, the Job Scheduler BSE Service starts the job. If the job’s status is Free, you can start the job by running the Activate Job (ttaad5203m000) session.

To run the job with Activate Job (ttaad5203m000)

Because your running bshell starts the job, you cannot close the bshell until the job is finished. If the job is started prior to the time and date of execution, the job’s status changes to Waiting. When the job is carried out, the job’s status changes to Running.

If you must start a job that belongs to more than one company, you must switch to the required company with the Change Company command, before you start the job.
